An Irony Primer
LF.com often trades in irony. To help our readers understand us better (and thus the times we live in, for LF.com is nothing but a reflection of these days), we direct your attention to this wonderful (not meant ironically) piece by Zoe Wiliams in the Guardian. (You may have to sign in or register or something. Do it.)

Other things to note, however, about this article:
1. Brits have a funny way of saying things: (a) "set the video"; (b) Really Couldn't Be More Pleased That You've Lost a Stone"
2. Williams has a good take on rags like FHM: ". . . it's effectively saying "women are neither objects, nor non-objects – and here are some tits!"
3. Brits think Alanis Morissette (you knew she'd be in there somewhere) is American.
